When I broke a line a few weeks ago on my 85 900S 8-valve, I was able to "borrow" one from my 82 donor car (RIP). Exact fit, but I noticed the 82 has a rubber tray across the engine with the four lines pressed in, very well protected. The 85 just has the four lines wrapped in a hose protector with zip ties...
Eeuroparts may handle just 2 and 3, since these bend in opposite directions at the injector end, and you may be able to get 3 to work for 4, and 2 for 1. But you'd have to be careful about securing them so nothing threatens the line. These obviously can be somewhat fragile, and pouring gasoline on top of the engine isn't really a good idea! (although not so fragile, that even in very cold weather, I could extract the line from its holder in the 82, and get it into the bundle inside a hose protector that didn't really want to open for me.) I was also pleasantly surprised that these compression fittings that hadn't been touched since the factory so long ago came off with no problems.
